Arranging the music of one song...

Happy birthday to the incredible halc! Turns out this chthonic-halc collab was queued just right for some bday postage. Birfday boy Mr. Wheeler writes:

"I've been thinking long and hard about what to say about this ReMix, but all I can come up with is 'omg i love it'. Expect more collaborations from the two of us... we see each other *nearly* everyday (hell, we made this in Ben's girlfriends's bedroom), and I think this stuff is beginning to come quite naturally. Have fun. :3"

There's some sort of lewd joke to be had there involving girlfriend's bedrooms, but I've been playing too much Borderlands and my mind is fried. Co-conspirator Mr. Briggs adds:

"So we made another one! Everything came together much more quickly and easily this time around, except for maybe the ending, but eventually we decided the track was already full-featured enough without including the main overworld theme. Um, other than that, I guess I'll just say that I love this remix, and I can't wait for our next collaboration. Enjoy!"

I can't refer to halc and chthonic as the "Batman & Robin of Chippish OC ReMixes", because they're BOTH Batman, but you get the idea. On their own, each is capable of greatness, and they also work fantastically & naturally as a pair. The two of them did a great job (!) with this LttP arrangement, which is all sorts of mellow, major-key, upbeat chippish synth loveliness. Plenty of modulation, gated cross-panning (hell, there might even be crossed gate-panning, too...), loads of syncopated nano-beats, and more. It's all rather blissful, and the bottom line is that if you're feeling down, this'll pick you up, and if you're already on cloud nine, this'll take you to ten. Seems like an appropriately euphoric, celebratory fit for a birthday. Continued superlative work by both artists!

Chippy and happy, just what I've come to expect from the terrific
two known as Insert Rupee. Makes you want to skip down a road
from pure nostalgia mixed with wonderful instrumentation and
arrangement skills. LttP is one of those games where ReMixes can
shine depending on how it's handled, and these two handled it
like pros. Very cool.

Been a long time fan of OCRemix but this song just made me want
to join the forum.

I absolutely love what was done with this mix, for some reason
this theme doesn't get more love so it was wonderful to hear it
again. My favorite part of the track is at 2:10 to 2:55 when it
gets a bit creative with the harmony, it hits like a nostalgic
punch to the face.

Oh man, I love how happy tracks made by both these artists sound.
It's like chocolate chip cookies for my ears. These are easily
two of my favorite OCR artists, and together they really killed
this track.

What do you get when you mix two of the chippy-est remixers
together for a track? Well, usually you end up with a lot of
empty potato chip bags, but that's not the case here. As always,
great use of stutter and glitch effects throughout, and really
appropriate choice of leads and pad support. Production couldn't
be better for the feeling I believe the remixers were trying to
evoke. A perfect blend of the two peoples, since I can't tell who
did what, and even if I could, it doesn't matter anyway.

Man, this is what I've been waiting for! Two of my favorite
OCReMixers, and one of my all-time favorite VG tracks. This is
exactly the kind of treatment this song needed. The vibe of this
mix fits the accomplished feeling you get at the end of the game.
If only all credits had this feel to them. =)

I have quite literally been listening to this all day. I can't
stop listening to it. I'm not sure what you fellows were going
for, but your track managed to put me in that most rarefied of
moods: reflective. Thanks for that.
